Auby's Arboretum Adventure with our Fantlets

This Friday we enjoyed an Arboretum adventure with our Fantlet friends. Today the Arboretum hosted a petting zoo play and face painting area. The kids absolutely loved the animals. From a donkey, a few goats, sheep, bunny, and chicken, Aubrey wanted to pet them all. She even went around to each goat telling it all about the bunny and chicken. It was hilarious and a huge change from our cautious babe.

After our time at the petting zoo, we made our way over to the face painting station. There was absolutely no line, so we jumped right on in. I was unsure if little miss would even be ok with having her face painted, but she did great. The lady was fantastic and Auby sat so perfectly still. 

I loved the way it turned out. I just love these sweet little pictures of Bryson and Auby together after their face painting session.

Once we finished, we walked around the flowered path until it was time to head to the children's playground. It was perfect for our range of kids. They explored the play area. It included water play, sand pit, maze, slide, lots of bugs, turtle talk, and dinosaur egg exploration. Enjoy pictures of our Arboretum Adventure in the children's playground.

While our day was a bit hot, it was a perfect morning adventure for our littles. We give a big thanks to our Fantlet friends and enjoyed such a great morning of friendly fun! Our morning was a sure success!

Our Precious Pumpkin at Pumpkin Village

Sunday afternoon was absolutely bright and beautiful. It was a perfect day for a family trip to the Arboretum and a fun stop at the Pumpkin Village. There were pumpkins of all shapes, colors, sizes, and even textures.

 

 

 

 

Big ones, small ones... sorry I had to break out in song a bit. But even with over 50,000 pumpkins that lined the walkways and were included in the Pumpkin Village, I have to say that our little pumpkin is the most precious.

This was a special trip as Oma was able to join us and spend some time with our pumpkin. Aubrey did such a great job. All the passers by had fun little comments about our little newborn.

What a great afternoon of fall fun in the pumpkin village. A time so precious spent with those we love and loving our fantastic family of three.

 

Afternoon Arboretum Adventure!

Last Saturday, the husband suprised me with a Spring afternoon outing to the Arboretum. The weather was absolutely gorgeous and hot! We ventured around the park and enjoyed the beautiful exhibit of blown glass. It was a great afternoon adventure at the Arboretum and a perfect time to smell the roses... literally. Enjoy a plentiful picture post of our afternoon together!

This past month has truly been a whirlwind. It was nice to have a relaxing outing for our Memorial Day Saturday. After our trip to the park and a quick Sonic drink, the husband and I decided that our batteries were recharged and we were ready to go shopping for some house pieces. We found a few new options including a new dining room table and television stand. We are simply excited to fill our new home and for all the fun house projects that we will complete this summer. Here's to many fun filled days and Summer adventures with Ray:)
